Over the next few days, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry's]] worst memory is of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cedric Diggory|Cedric Diggory]]'s parents. They never seemed angry, and instead thanked Harry for returning Cedric's body. They expressed relief that he did not suffer and died only after winning the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Triwizard Tournament|Tournament]]. Harry offered them the Tournament winnings, saying Cedric would have reached the Cup first, but they had refused.
Harry returns to Gryffindor Tower after [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Albus Dumbledore|Professor Dumbledore]] addresses the school. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ron Weasley|Ron]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Hermione Granger|Hermione]] tell him that Dumbledore has instructed everyone to refrain asking Harry about what happened in the maze. Harry, Ron, and Hermione reach their own tacit agreement to avoid discussing it. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Molly Weasley|Mrs. Weasley]] has asked Dumbledore if Harry could stay with them for the summer, but Dumbledore says Harry must first spend time at [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Privet Drive|Privet Drive]]. When Harry wonders why, Ron says that his mother assumes Dumbledore has his reasons.
The only person Harry can confide in is [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rubeus Hagrid|Hagrid]]. With no [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Defence Against the Dark Arts|Defence Against the Dark Arts]] teacher, that time is free, and the Trio heads to Hagrid's hut. He is pleased to see Harry and invites them all in. When Harry notices a second bucket-sized teacup on the table, Hagrid admits he was having tea with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Olympe Maxime|Madame Maxime]]. Hagrid startles Harry by saying that he knew [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Voldemort]] would return, it was only a matter of time. Hagrid says that Harry did as much as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/James Potter|his father]] would have, and there is no higher praise than that. Harry smiles for the first time in days. When asked, Hagrid is unable to tell Harry what mission Dumbledore is sending Hagrid and Madame Maxime on; Hagrid almost has Madame Maxime convinced to go with him. He jokingly invites them to visit the last [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Skrewt|Skrewt]].
The Leaving Feast is a sad affair; the Great Hall is draped in black. Professor Karkaroff is still missing, and Harry wonders whether he has been caught yet. The real [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Alastor Moody|Alastor Moody]] is there, looking jumpy. Snape has returned from his mission, still looking sour; Harry remembers from the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Pensieve|Pensieve]] that Dumbledore told the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Wizengamot|Wizengamot]] that Snape became a spy at great personal risk before Voldemort's fall. Dumbledore rises to address the school, starting with a tribute to Cedric Diggory. Cedric, he says, exemplified the attributes of Hufflepuff House, he was a good and loyal friend, and a hard worker. It is only fair to reveal how he died: he was murdered by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lord Voldemort|Lord Voldemort]]. The Ministry, he continues, "does not want me to tell you this, and some of your parents will be horrified, but truth is generally preferable to lies, and saying Cedric died from an accident is an insult to his memory." Dumbledore says he must also mention Harry Potter. Harry faced Lord Voldemort, escaped, and risked his life to return Cedric's body. He toasts Harry, as do most in the Great Hall; but through a gap in the standing figures, Harry sees that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Draco Malfoy|Draco]] and his cronies do not.

As Harry, Ron, and Hermione prepare to leave Hogwarts the next day, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Fleur Delacour|Fleur]] runs up to say goodbye to Harry; she is hoping to get a job in England to improve her English. When Ron says that it is very good already, Hermione scowls. As Fleur leaves, Ron wonders aloud how the Durmstrang students will get back without Karkaroff. [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Viktor Krum|Krum]] says that Karkaroff did not steer the ship, the students did. He asks Hermione for a private word. After they return, Krum says that he liked Cedric, and shakes Harry's hand, and then Ron's.
On the Hogwarts Express, Harry, Ron, and Hermione have a compartment to themselves, and Harry finally feels free to share what happened. They talk uninterrupted, until the lunch trolley arrives. Returning from the trolley, Hermione drops a copy of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/The Daily Prophet|the ''Daily Prophet'']], saying there are not any Harry stories in it other than news about him winning the Tournament. She thinks [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cornelius Fudge|Fudge]] is putting pressure on them. When Ron suggests that [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Rita Skeeter|Rita Skeeter]] would never miss a story like that, Hermione admits that she discovered how Rita was getting her stories. Harry gave her a clue talking about electronic bugging. She then produces a jar containing a large beetle. It is Rita Skeeter, an unregistered [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Animagus|Animagus]]. Hermione spotted her in the Hospital Wing the night Cedric died and trapped her in the jar. Ron and Harry recall that with every story Rita wrote, a large beetle had been nearby during their private conversations. Hermione will release her when they reach London, but if she writes any stories for one year, Rita will be reported to the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Places/Ministry of Magic|Ministry of Magic]].
Draco barges in, saying how clever Hermione is trapping a journalist. He tells Harry he has picked the wrong side; Voldemort is back, and Cedric is only the first to die. Wand-flashes suddenly fill the compartment, and Draco, [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Vincent Crabbe|Crabbe]] and [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Gregory Goyle|Goyle]] are suddenly lying, unconscious and disfigured, on the floor. Harry, Ron, and Hermione each used a different hex on them, in addition to ones fired by [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Fred and George Weasley|Fred and George]]. After dumping Malfoy, Crabbe, and Goyle in the corridor, Fred and George join the Trio for the trip's remainder.
Harry asks who Fred and George were blackmailing. Fred responds it was [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Ludovic Bagman|Ludo Bagman]], but they have given up. Ludo paid their winnings with vanishing [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Leprechaun|Leprechaun]] gold. When they demanded real money, he became virtuous, telling them boys their age should not be gambling anyway. Apparently, he also cheated [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lee Jordan|Lee Jordan]]'s father. Ludo also wagered on the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Major Events/Quidditch World Cup|Quidditch World Cup]] with the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Goblin|Goblins]] and lost heavily. He was betting on Harry to win the Triwizard Tournament, which is why he was always trying to help Harry. When Harry and Cedric touched the cup simultaneously, the Goblins claimed it was a draw, and Ludo had
Reaching King's Cross Station, Hermione and Ron maneuver their trunks past the still-stunned Draco and his cronies. Harry privately calls George and Fred aside and gives them his Triwizard prize. George exclaims that he must be mental, but Harry insists he does not want or need it. He wants the Twins to finance their own joke shop with it, but there is one condition: they must buy Ron new dress robes. After bidding goodbye to Hermione and Ron, and receiving Fred and George's fervent thanks, Harry leaves with [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Vernon Dursley|Uncle Vernon]], awaiting whatever may happen next.

{{Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Intermediate Spoiler}}
Dumbledore's refusal to allow anyone to talk to Harry about the events in the graveyard, and the limited amount of information he provides at the Leaving Feast, seems to be adequate to the reader, who of course has been present for the entire sequence. For Harry, and for Dumbledore, the information Dumbledore provides should be enough to go on with. For the student body, however, there is not enough information available to be certain whether Harry or Dumbledore are telling the truth. The large number of unanswered questions will lead a significant part of the student body to doubt Harry's story. Harry will have to fight this disbelief, which will be aided by the Ministry's attack on their credibility, through a large part of the next book.
Harry recalls from the [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Pensieve|Pensieve]] that when Dumbledore vouched for Snape's loyalty, saying he become a Ministry spy at "great personal risk," he did so while in Karkaroff's presence. Karkaroff, who has gone into hiding, is a weak and cowardly character, as shown when he divulged Death Eaters' names in exchange for his release from Azkaban. If a Death Eater finds him, he may again attempt to barter information for his life, and Snape turning informant is a huge bargaining chip. It will be revealed that Karkaroff is killed about a year after going into hiding, found in a hut with the Dark Mark floating overhead. Assuming the Ministry left his memory in tact, could Karkaroff have revealed Snape's defection to his murderer? If so, and the Death Eater passed on this information, would an arrogant Voldemort believe it rather that his own [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Legilimency|Legilimency]] that Snape is loyal?▼
Dumbledore and Harry are not only battling Voldemort, but also the Ministry of Magic, who will refuse to admit that Voldemort has returned, and will mount their own attack against Harry and Dumbledore, publicly renouncing their claims and undermining their credibility. We have already seen the start of this campaign, as [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Cornelius Fudge|Fudge]], denying all evidence he is presented, says that if Dumbledore persists in this story that Voldemort has returned, the Ministry will fight him. This is, presumably, why Dumbledore states that the Ministry does not want him to tell the students that Voldemort has returned. We will see, in the next book, that the Ministry carries this policy of denial to almost incredible lengths, abandoning it finally only when Voldemort is seen by Fudge and other witnesses in the Ministry atrium.

It will be mentioned in the next book that Harry's protection, which he received when [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Lily Potter|his mother]] died to save him, will remain in force only as long as he has a place that he can call home, where his mother's blood ([[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Petunia Dursley|Aunt Petunia]]) remains. It is because of this that Dumbledore is taking pains to ensure that the house at Privet Drive will remain a home for Harry, despite Harry's patent dislike for the place.
